Operating Environment Requirements

The operating environment requirements are the same for both the SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220
servers. Your environmental control system must provide intake air for the servers that complies
with the limits specified inEnvironmental Specifications.

To avoid overheating, do not direct warmed air:

Toward the front air intake of the server

Toward the server access panels

Note - When you receive your server, place it in the environment where you will
install it. Leave it in its shipping crate at its final destination for
24 hours. This resting period prevents thermal shock and condensation.

The servers have been tested to meet all functional requirements when operating in
the operating environmental limits presented Environmental Specifications. Operating computer equipment in extremes of temperature
or humidity increases the failure rate of hardware components. To minimize the chance
of component failure, use the server within the optimal temperature and humidity ranges.
